4 terms

Dividend Equivalents (DEs) financial

"These shares include 1,564 Dividend Equivalents (DEs) granted pursuant to the Amgen Inc. Second Amended..."

Restricted Stock Units financial

"DEs are credited to the reporting person's unvested Restricted Stock Units and are paid out in shares..."

Restricted stock units are a type of company reward where employees are promised shares of stock, but they only fully own these shares after meeting certain conditions, like staying with the company for a set time. They matter because they can become valuable assets and are often used to motivate employees to help the company succeed.

Equity Incentive Plan financial

"Dividend Equivalents (DEs) granted pursuant to the Amgen Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2009 Equity Incentive Plan..."

An equity incentive plan is a program that gives employees, executives or directors the right to receive company stock or options to buy stock as part of their pay. Think of it as offering slices of future company profit to motivate people to boost long‑term performance; for investors it matters because it can align employee goals with shareholder value but also increases the number of shares outstanding, which can dilute existing ownership.
